Metal Jacketed Gaskets
Metal Jacketed gaskets are the most basic type of semi-metallic gaskets combining the high pressure suitability
and blow out resistance of metallic materials with the improved compressibility of soft materials. Metal jacketed

making them a good option for heat exchanger jointing.

to a wide range of applications. For improved sealing performance the gaskets can be partially or completely
covered.
Metal Jacketed and corrugated gaskets can be manufactured to suit a range of chemical environments by the
selection of a suitable alloy jacket or core. The following materials are available:

Corrugated steel with Soft Facing Layer
Comprises a single corrugated core faced with either PTFE
or Graphite dependant on application. The soft facing
layer provides the gasket with a high level of tightness
while the core gives the gasket both resilience and
integrity. Used in variety of applications including heat
exchangers, valve bonnet application and small recess gaps.

We are the exclusive agent in Abu Dhabi for Garlok pipeline technologies GPT(PSI/Pikotek). Flange isolating kits are designed to minimize the effects of electro chemicalerosion and isolate sections of the pipework.
Each kit comprises of:• One insulating gasket• One insulating sleeve per bolt• Two insulating and two plated steel washers per bolt.
Flange Isolating Kits
Rubber-Steel Gaskets
The Main Types of Isolating Flange Kits are:
VCS
A high reliability gasket used mainly for isolating purposes in Very Critical Services.
VCFS
A Very critical fire safe version was created by taking a standard VCS configuration and adding a secondary sealing element that is capable of maintaining a seal while subject
to a 15000F fire. The VCFS had fully passed the API 6FB, 3rd Edition fire test.
VCSID
A Very critical service Inside Diameter Seal introduces an internal, machined PTFE seal at the bore of the existing VCS design platform to ensure an extremely tight seal and a resistance to effects from internal pressure or aggressive media.

Rubber-steel gaskets have amassed a wide range of appli-cations in sealing technology. Wherever the secure sealingof media with an exceptionally low leak rate, as well as lowbolt loads at relatively low temperatures is required, rubber-steel gaskets provide the optimal solution.
The steel support ring prevents a blow out of the gasket andincreases stability, allowing the rubber-steel gasket to behandled easily, even in difficult fitting conditions.
The rubber sealing material ensures a secure seal is cre-ated, even in uneven locations, as it has an excellent abilityto adapt to sealing surfaces.

STORAGE OF GASKETS
Flange Surface Finish
A gasket is a precision item of equipment which more often than not contains a polymer binder. it requires correct
s torage conditions to ensure that it is not damaged or degraded when fitted.
Ideal s torage conditions are:- Shelf Life
Storage life can be as short as a fewweeks or as long as five years -depending on the gasket material and
the storage conditions.
We recommend that if the environment
as detailed above is employed then
gaskets should be examined everyyear to check their condition.
Richard Klinger Ltd have several non-
destructive tests which can determine
residual quality and we offer thesefacilities to all of our customers.
A dry atmosphere. Some materials(particularly cellulose based) arehygroscopic and consequently are
dimensionally unstable in damp
conditions.
20oC or below. The rate of
oxidation is directly related to theambient temperature and above
20oC some materials will harden
over a period of time. Lower
temperatures (e.g. fros ts) will notnormally harm gaskets. Avoid
localised heat such as steam pipes
or radiotors.
We typically recommend the following flange surface finish value for our gasketgrades used on s tandard pipe flanges.
3.2μm to 12.5μm Ra(125 μ.in to 500μ.in CLA)
3.2μm to 12.5μm Ra(125 μ.in to 500μ.in CLA)

Note 1. For tongue and groove flange facings or for very thin gaskets (i.e. 0.4mm or below) a surface finish of 1.6μm to 6.3μm Ra (63 to 250 micro inch) is possible. We would never recommend a surface finish value below 1.6μm due to the negative effect of smoother faces on creep resistance of the gasket.
In the dark, Ultra-violet light in thesun’s rays can attack some gasket
materials and cause cracking and
embrittlement.
Avoid oil contamination (particularly
important for graphite gaskets)
Away from any electrical
discharge. Some electricalequioment (e.g. arc-welding )cancreate ozone gas- which has a
serious effect on many polymers.
Flat gaskets will give its best
perfomance if stored flat insteadof rolled, folded or hung on hooks.
